Hello hello! I'd like to start off by giving you all a BIG THANK YOU for 500+ followers!! like WOAh that's halfway to 1k I can't believe this :00 I don't put too much stock into my follower count, but it means so much to have all of this support, both from people who are following me and people who aren't <33 aNd now onto the project-- Right now, across the globe, people are staying home. Many have been for nearly a year. We've been staying at home to stop the spread of COVID-19. But in keeping ourselves from others, we've been isolated. We've been kept from our families, friends, peers, teachers, employers, and even our next-door neighbors. Being away from others has, for a lot of us, been taking away from our mental and even physical health. Scratch is one way I have been preserving my mental health. It's such a welcoming community, and I'm so happy to be a part of it. You all have kept me sane when I would otherwise be banging my head on my desk (I still do occasionally xD but it's more for fun than out of despair), and Scratch has provided me hours of entertainment. Scratch has been such a wonderful way to connect with others during a time when connection is severely lacking. So how is all of this relevant to the project? I'm going to be hosting an art collab! The theme of the collaboration (after pondering this for wayy too long) is going to be 'through the window'. The theme is supposed to kind of tie into what our current situation looks like. Sharing something you're doing during the pandemic, I think, is a great way to connect. Here's how this is going to work: - fill out the form (below) - create a piece of original artwork displaying something you have been doing during the pandemic - your art should show someone/something through or from the inside of a window. I have a couple examples in the project (click to view) for inspiration. If you are doing your drawing from the inside, I want your window to be a MAIN PART of your art, please! - do NOT trace, steal, use gacha, an icon creator, etc. I want this to be your ORIGINAL art, please! (I /will/ be able to tell if you have stolen, traced, or otherwise claimed art that is not yours as your own) - please make your art of you at home or somewhere very close to your home; I don't want you to draw yourself at school or at a friend's house since that defeats the point of the virtual-ness xD - please remix this project with your entry! - I will compile all — kodeword is 'light' (changes!!) — of the art pieces into one project when they are done!! - this will probably close towards the end of February, maybe a little bit later? You will need to have your art done before then. examples of activities: reading, drawing, painting, cooking, taking care of family members, cleaning, exercising, doing something for charity, playing a board game, doing virtual school, playing an instrument (you can also listen to all the things Rapunzel is doing [click the flag] for ideas! xD) I would like no more than two people doing the same activity; I'd like to have some variety!! form: username without @ (specify any hidden i's, etc.) ● scene you're drawing ● likelihood of you dropping out (1 being very likely, 10 being highly improbable) ● will you be able to finish in less than a month? ● codeword (hide it well!!) ▲ = complete △ = incomplete ▼ = wip parts: ▲ ● a girl videochatting with a computer behind a window ▲ ● painting on a canvas ▲ ● looking at a friend through the window ▲ ● looking out the window ▲ ● Drawing in virtual class △ ● Me journaling in bed △ ● Climbing out of a window onto the roof ▲ ● someone gazing sadly out a window while imagining themself happy outside △ ● somebody with hands pressed to a window ▲ ● voltron pidge looking out a window at earth △ ● somebody sitting at a desk on a zoom call, doing maybe a highfive or something through the screen △ ● oc chilli and her cat, tux staring out the window △ ● Someone reaching through an open window, throwing an imaginary paper airplane and talking to an imaginary friend △ ● somebody looking through a window, seeing deserted playgrounds and stuff while there's pictures of people together inside credits: art - please please do not steal I actually worked super hard on this one! :D code - I'm pretty sure it was all by me, I'm never sure if I've absentmindedly pulled something or other from another person lol music - When Will My Life Begin from Rapunzel (this song was so so perfect :0) xD
